During the holidays, it can be tempting to take out a HELOC withdrawal. Presents and parties can be expensive. But, don’t forget that every time you take out money from your home equity line you put your home at risk. If you’re not able to pay back the money withdrawn for holiday fun, you may lose your home through foreclosure.

Only withdraw money from your HELOC if you’re sure that you can pay it back. Home equity borrowing is much more risky than credit card borrowing because it puts your property on the line.
